SETCLOCK

      Alters the system time or system time zone.

SYNTAX


      SETCLOCK  {DATE= date spec; TIME= time spec [;GRADUAL | ;NOW]}

                {CORRECTION= correction spec [;GRADUAL | ;NOW]}

                {TIMEZONE= time zone spec}

:help setclock example
EXAMPLES

      The following example illustrates setting the system time by
      providing a date and time:


         SETCLOCK DATE=07/04/1993;TIME=15:00


      The following example illustrates providing a time correction to
      advance the system time by one hour.

         SETCLOCK CORRECTION= +3600

      or

         SETCLOCK CORRECTION= 3600

      Both of the above examples cause Universal Time (GMT) to change
      as well as local time, and therefore while they are useful in
      correcting the system time for drift (time gain or loss), they are
      not accurate ways to change time zones.
